Experienced Scalable Backend Development TeamBackend Development
We build backend systems that handle millions of requests. 200+ products shipped, 8-12 week delivery, fixed pricing from $80K.
IRPR is an experienced scalable backend development team that builds production-ready systems using Node.js, Go, Python, PostgreSQL, Redis, and AWS. Our engineers have shipped backend architectures for 200+ products across 50 countries.
We deliver a working scalable backend in 8-12 weeks with fixed pricing from $80K to $250K. Every project includes load testing, CI/CD pipelines, and monitoring with Datadog and Sentry. Compliance standards like HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and SOC 2 are built in from day one.
CTOs hire us when their in-house team is too slow. Startup founders hire us to build their SaaS backend before funding. Enterprise VPs hire us to modernize legacy systems without hiring 10 more engineers.
Types of software we ship.

Why you need an experienced scalable backend development team
A backend that scales poorly costs you customers and revenue. We build systems that grow with your business.
IRPR has shipped backend systems for 200+ products. One client's API handled 10,000 requests per second during a Black Friday event with 99.9% uptime. We use load testing tools like k6 and Artillery before launch to guarantee performance.
Our team of senior engineers designs for scale from day one. We choose the right database (PostgreSQL for relational, DynamoDB for high throughput), implement caching with Redis, and set up auto-scaling groups on AWS. No rewrites needed when you hit 100,000 users.
The difference between generic dev shops and IRPR
Most agencies promise scale but deliver spaghetti code. Here is how IRPR differs.
Generic dev shops use junior developers, hourly billing, and no fixed timeline. You pay for their learning curve. IRPR assigns only senior engineers with 8+ years of experience. Every project has a fixed price and a clear roadmap delivered in week 2.
We write code that passes strict compliance audits. Our healthcare backends are HIPAA compliant. Our fintech backends meet PCI-DSS Level 1. Every deployment goes through a CI/CD pipeline with automated tests, security scanning, and performance benchmarks.
- Junior developers learning on your dime
- Hourly billing with no cost cap
- No load testing before launch
- Monolithic code that breaks at 1,000 users
- No CI/CD pipeline
- You own nothing at the end
- Senior engineers with 8+ years experience
- Fixed price from $80K, no surprises
- Load testing with k6 and Artillery before launch
- Microservices or modular monolith designed for scale
- CI/CD pipeline on GitHub Actions with automated tests
- Full source code ownership from day one
Our 4-step process to build your scalable backend
We follow a proven framework: Idea, Roadmap, Product, Release. Here is how it works for backend systems.
Every project starts with a one-week Idea phase where we map your requirements to specific backend components. We identify the data model, API endpoints, third-party integrations, and scaling requirements. You get a detailed system design document.
The Roadmap phase (week 2) produces a fixed-price contract with a sprint-by-sprint plan. We build the backend in 8-12 weeks, deploying to a staging environment after each sprint. You see working code every two weeks.
What ships with every backend project
You get more than code. Every backend delivery includes these 10 items.
We do not hand over a zip file and disappear. Every project includes a production-ready deployment, monitoring, and documentation. You can take over or we can continue to maintain.
- Source code in your private GitHub repository
- CI/CD pipeline on GitHub Actions with automated tests
- Dockerized development and production environments
- Load testing report from k6 with performance benchmarks
- Sentry error tracking and Datadog monitoring setup
- API documentation with Swagger or Postman collection
- Database schema and migration scripts
- Deployment guide with AWS CloudFormation or Terraform
- Security audit report (OWASP top 10 checks)
- 30 days of post-launch support and bug fixes
What we ship in this practice.
SaaS subscription backend
Built a multi-tenant backend for a B2B SaaS company using Node.js, PostgreSQL, and Stripe. Handles 5,000 API calls per minute with sub-100ms response times. Reduced customer onboarding time from 3 days to 15 minutes.
Real-time analytics dashboard
Developed a real-time data pipeline using Apache Kafka and AWS Kinesis. Processes 1 million events per hour with 10-second latency. Used Go for the ingestion service and React for the frontend.
Healthcare appointment platform
Built a HIPAA-compliant backend for a telehealth startup using Express.js, PostgreSQL, and Twilio. Supports 10,000 concurrent video sessions with end-to-end encryption. Passed HIPAA audit on first attempt.
Ecommerce order fulfillment system
Created an event-driven backend for a multi-warehouse retailer using Node.js, RabbitMQ, and MongoDB. Processes 50,000 orders per day with real-time inventory sync. Cut fulfillment errors by 80%.
Fintech payment gateway
Developed a PCI-DSS Level 1 compliant payment processing backend using Go, PostgreSQL, and Stripe Connect. Handles $2 million in daily transaction volume with 99.99% uptime.
IoT data collection platform
Built a scalable backend for a manufacturing company using AWS IoT Core, DynamoDB, and Lambda. Ingests data from 10,000 sensors every 5 seconds. Reduced machine downtime by 35% through predictive alerts.
Why teams hire us.
Senior engineers only, no juniors
Every engineer on your project has 8+ years of backend experience. We do not staff juniors to pad margins. You talk directly to the person writing your code.
Fixed price from $80K
You get a fixed quote after the Roadmap phase (week 2). No hourly billing, no overtime charges, no surprise invoices. If we miss a sprint, we work extra at no cost.
8-12 week delivery
We ship a working backend in 8-12 weeks, not 6 months. Our team works in 2-week sprints with a demo at the end of each sprint. You see progress every two weeks.
Full code ownership
You own every line of code from day one. No licensing fees, no vendor lock-in. We hand over the GitHub repository, CI/CD pipeline, and deployment scripts.
Built for compliance from day one
We design backends to meet HIPAA, PCI-DSS, SOC 2, and GDPR from the first sprint. No retrofitting compliance after launch. We include encryption, audit logs, and access controls.
Proven scale, not theory
Our backends handle real traffic. One client's API processed 10 million requests in 24 hours with zero downtime. We load test every system to 5x expected traffic before launch.
Idea → Roadmap → Product → Release.
Every engagement runs through the same four-stage pipeline. Predictable by design.
